🔍 Key Concepts

• Trim by the bow or stern when weight is added away from the vessel’s center of flotation (LCF) • Using the Guidance (Loading) Manual tables for M.V. GRAND HAVEN to find draft changes for a given weight in a specific hatch • How added weight affects mean draft versus change in trim

💭 Think About

• From the Guidance Manual, find where No. 1 hatch is located relative to midships/LCF. Is it forward or aft? • Determine how 840 LT in that hatch will change the mean draft and how much extra change occurs at the forward and after drafts due to trim. • Compare each choice: which one shows a reasonable increase in mean draft and a consistent trim change (i.e., bow deeper vs. stern deeper)?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in the Grand Haven loading manual the correction factors (or tables) used for weight added in No. 1 hatch. • Check whether the forward draft should go up or down and whether the after draft should go up or down based on the hatch position relative to LCF. • Confirm that the new drafts you select give a mean draft change that matches the total displacement change for 840 LT (within the manual’s guidance).
